Schools make budget requests
The seven institutions of higher learning Monday presented budget requests for fiscal 1939 totaling $132.2 million, plus $9.4 million more for capital improvements.
The budget requests for the seven colleges and universities and the vocational technical program was more than $17 million above the money for fiscal 1968 which begins July 1.
The requested increase for capital improvements was more than $8.4 million above what the legislature authorized for schools for 1968.
W. Clarke Wescoe, KU chancellor, asked for $354,000 to allow the university to match a $1.8
million National Aeronautics and Space Administration grant. The money would be used to construct a space research facility at KU.
James A. McCain, Kansas State University president, sought $1.2 million to construct and equip veterinary medicine facilities at that school. The 1967 legislature approved a bill to allow $110,000 to the university to begin planning for a proposed $14 million building and improvement program in the veterinary medicine school.
McCain said plans are to complete a master plan of proposed veterinary medicine facilities by October. The school's accrediting agency has warned that accreditation will be lifted from the school if improvements are not made.
The regents agreed to petition Hays to move Fort Hays State College inside the city limits to obtain cheaper water rates.
John Eberhardt of Wichita was elected chairman of the regents, succeeding Dwight Klinger of Ashland, who was named vice chairman. Both men serve one-year terms.
The budget requests by institutions with the 1969 requests first and the 1968 second were: KU Medical Center, $26,641,145 and $23,777,962; KU, $34,748,841 and $30,318,319; Kansas State University, $35,954,150 and $31,863,606; Wichita State University, $12,-
